What non-software market sectors use confluence

[DJ Johnson]

I am a professor at a technical college. Our students are using Confluence in the game design projects. I am wondering if there is a white paper that discusses the many other market sectors that use Confluence. My students might explore careers outside of game development.

Hi @DJ Johnson ,

I work at a shipping supplies company that utilizes Confluence for various use-cases:

• Customer Service: Procedures - Training - Department Communications
• Facilities: Project Management - Reference Materials - Procedures
• Finance: Procedures - Troubleshooting guides - Calendaring
• Human Resources: Procedures - Information on IT systems - Project Management
• IT: Procedures - Project Management

Keep in mind, Confluence is a tool that can be adapted into any business area. We like to call it a "Wikipedia on steroids" as a starting point, but after installing various add-ons, it becomes a robust collaboration solution.

I will also edit this post if I can tag an Atlassian employee and see if they can give their 2 cents or supply documentation.

@Brittany Sudlow Would Atlassian have any documentation on how companies use Confluence?

I am interested what Brittany will come up with - in the meantime I'd like to link here the customer stories which I found helpful:
